I'm working at QTSender during my spare time(when i'm not fixing MSNBrowser).

I found a code for a file but I can't make it really work.

Headers:

code:

---

#include <fstream.h>
#include <iostream.h>

---

Code:

code:

---

            char str[1100]; //set string lenght

            int nRandom = rand()%3;

            if(nRandom == 0)
                ifstream b_file("QTS1.txt");//opens file for reading
                b_file>>str; //reads one string from file
                strcpy(sResult, str); //output text
                b_file.close();//close file

(If you copy this to notepad it will be easier to read)

My question is how to fix those errors???
Or is the code to open the file wrong???
What should i change the >> too???

I know most of these are 'beginner' faults but i just can't work with files in C++
Fixed some stuff myself (the bold stuff)

code:

---

if(nRandom == 0) {
    ifstream b_file("QTS1.txt");
    b_file>>str;
    strcpy(sResult, str);
    b_file.close();
}

Same code, with added bracyness. That should clear a lot of the errors you're having, if not all.

I'll try that

EDIT:Woohooow woohooow SUPER!!!!
It worked

EDIT2:

The only thing wrong is that the thing ouputs Ì 1100 times instead of the text in the file.

str is a char variable? If so, that's why. You'll have to write code that can read whole strings instead.
I recommend you get a book on C++: it will tell you all you need to know. I recommend Sam's Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days.

I'm looking for a book on C++ but It has to be dutch...
